SimpleRenderable has no constructor...

I got PyOgre 1.2.0 compiled from SVN with Visual C++ Express 2005 without too many problems. There were quite a few user32.lib missing, and one or two gdi32.lib. I also had to run swig from the command like as the pre-build step failed from the IDE...

Anyway, the problem I'm having is that I can't create an ogre.SimpleRenderable object! The constructor throws an exception:


def __init__(self): raise AttributeError, "No constructor defined"


I presume this is a bug, as I don't see any other way of creating such an object. Then again, I'm not quite an expert with Ogre yet!

Any insights?

Thanks,
Alex

The SceneManager has a function called "createManualObject" that sounds like what I need. How does a SimpleRenderable differ?

SimpleRenderable is on my TODO list. For now though I'm trying to get exceptions to work without crashing Python.

Ok, no problem. Do you collect these issues in the bug tracker or something?

I have the whole thing compiled and running smoothely, so if there's anything I can do, let me know!

For now there is a file called pyOgreTODO in the repository, but there is also a tracker on the berlios site.

If you are up to the task, feel free to fix this and submit a patch to the berlios site.
